Chapter 208: It’s not Adrian
Just as Ella had downed a few glasses of wine, she heard a familiar voice.
’’You don’t look as happy as I had expected you to be...’’
Ella slowly turned her head, the rim of her glass brushing her bottom lip as her gaze settled on the voice’s source.
Jenny stood a few feet away, her posture casual, her red silk gown clinging to every curve like it had been painted on.
Ella lowered her glass, arching a brow. "Hold my glass."
Jenny frowned, "What...?"
Ella blinked, a little tipsy by now, "Hold my glass so I can dance on tables and show you how happy I am.’’
Jenny’s eyes sharpened, "You..." she paused and put on an elegant smile when she spotted Dean Mo at a little distance, "No need to take it to heart. I was just saying. Because considering how you just snatched the spotlight from Esther, I thought you’d be gloating a little more."
Ella swirled her wine. "Is that what you would do?"
"I mean, isn’t that what you’ve always done?" Jenny stepped closer, lowering her voice. "Reappear from nowhere and stir up a mess. It’s your brand, isn’t it? First the Imperial University... and now this party."
Ella gave a slow smile, unbothered. "Professor, it has been quite a while since you got suspended from the university. Why are you still sulking?"
